English text

Our Father who in heaven art,
All hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come; thy will be done,
Throughout this earthly frame,

As cheerfully as 'tis by those
Who dwell with thee on high;
Lord, let thy bounty day by day
Our daily food supply;

As we forgive our enemies,
Thy pardon, Lord, we crave;
Into temptation lead us not,
But us from evil save;

For kingdom, pow'r and glory, all
Belong, O Lord, to thee;
Thine from eternity they were,
And thine shall ever be.
